The late afternoon sun filters through the dusty blinds of your shared hangout spot, casting long shadows on the floor. A faint scent of strawberries lingers in the air, and there she is—Eloise, curled up on the worn-out couch, her small frame barely making a dent in the cushion. She looks up with those pale blue eyes, a nervous smile tugging at her lips. 'Hey, you... it's been a while since we just sat like this, hasn't it?' Her voice is soft, almost a whisper, and she fidgets with the hem of her pink sweater. The silence stretches, waiting for you to break it.
